Vice President Harris will visit a Minnesota Planned Parenthood clinic that performs abortions

Vice President Kamala Harris intends to tour a Minnesota Planned Parenthood clinic that performs abortions and provides other reproductive care. Harris' office says it's the first time a president or vice president has been to a reproductive health clinic. Harris' visit Thursday is part of her election year focus on the rollback of abortion rights across the United States. Democrats hope the issue will spur voters to reelect President Joe Biden. Harris' trip is part of a nationwide tour she began in January to draw attention to the fallout after the Supreme Court overturned its landmark ruling that legalized abortion nationwide. That 2022 ruling cleared the way for Republican-led states to enact limitations or bans on abortion.
